Well, what I am trying to understand is what exactly you are trying to get out of this. Saying the game is not a true sequel does nothing. Neither does saying it is a true sequel. The game is what it is. Nothing will change it.

And you haven't lost anything. The old games are still there for your enjoyment.

I think I lost the opportunity to play future installments of Splinter Cell, with the same core gameplay elements.

The reason why I'm asking the question though, is because I do not believe there is a 100% consensus, and you already know that from looking at the poll result and replies. However, I'm very very very frusturated that I haven't gotten 1 legitimate response that actually gives reasons and rationales for why they believe Conviction preserved enough of the first 3 games. I don't just want a consensus, but I actually want to learn the reasoning behind people's opinions, and I'll gotten were:

"Fanboy"

"Why does it matter?"

"It was profitable"

"It was good"

"You can't adapt, lol"

"You're against change"

 

Nothing like:

"Well, X was in Splinter Cell, and look, here, there's X in Conviction as well!"

 

So all in all, I have to say that VGChartz's community dissapointed me again. I failed to get any constructive discourse, but the same old shit you get on FNC, the same old chewed up and spat out lines that I keep hearing over and over.

It seems like Splinter Cell isn't the only thing that died...
